As the defending champion of , the Warriors did not play their own advantages against the weak team. Thompson , Wiseman , Kuminga, and Wiggins played badly. , Curry, is also as excellent as ever. In this game, except for the difference in three points, it is still quite qualified in other aspects. But the Warriors' overall defense and discipline seemed to be back two years ago, and no one could help the team. Perhaps it was the arrogance after winning the championship, or perhaps it was because it didn't take Hornets seriously at all. This game was played very casually and losing is inevitable.
Thompson has really dropped a lot. Since the beginning of the season, both offense and defense have been at the mid-to-lower level. Performance like today can be said to be disastrous, with 11 points in 14 shots, and a three-point shooting rate of 1 of 7 shots is really eye-catching. If you really want to adjust your state, you can make , Poole , which is in a better state, replace the starting lineup. Now it depends on your strength, not who is qualified. If Thompson can't let go and blindly occupy the starting position, it will be somewhat dissatisfied. This adds more variables to the road to defending the title.
In addition, teams should not just train new players. For example, Wiseman, Kumingga performed poorly and should not play directly. It is difficult for them to hold on to the team's leverage. It is also good to choose trades at the right time. After all, Curry's peak cannot be wasted. The Warriors are also eyeing the outside of the team. The Western Suns, Grizzlies, Pelicans, Eastern Celtics, Bucks are all strong teams. The Warriors are not very sure of these teams. The Warriors can adjust as soon as possible to see hope of defending the title.
